Keanu Reeves’ reaction to 9-year-old who says he’s his favorite actor is breaking hearts

Keanu Reeves’ reaction to 9-year-old who says he’s his favorite actor is breaking hearts
If it wasn’t already abundantly clear, Keanu Reeves is a really, really good human being.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ll have likely heard the stories and seen the videos. You’ll know that for all his megastar status, millions of dollars, and unbelievable fame, Reeves is a down to earth individual who has never considered himself above compassion and kindness.
It seems as though every few months Reeves does something new to remind us that he’s the gold standard when it comes to A-list celebrities putting others before themselves and generally behaving like they truly care about the general population.

Reeves, well known for his work on blockbuster films, has shown himself to also be adept where comic book writing is concerned of late. He co-created and co-wrote the series BRZRKR, the biggest single selling issue since Star Wars in 2015, alongside Matt Kindt.
At a recent book signing, a nine-year-old fan of the series approached Keanu to tell him that the Matrix star was his “favorite actor”. Keanu’s reaction?
Well, it’s as wholesome as you’d expect…
When your star shines as bright as Keanu Reeves‘s does, it’s safe to assume there are very few days when you don’t encounter someone or other who wants you to take a photo with them or sign an autograph.
Now, we can imagine that the rigmarole must get tiring sometimes – I mean, it’s only natural to assume that people wanting a piece of you all the time will wear you down – but one would never guess it from watching Keanu interact with his fans.

There have been multiple instances of the 58-year-old showcasing his huge heart and compassion over the years. Take, for example, the time he responded to a boy’s rapid-fire questions with kindness after a long flight. Or how about that time Sandra Bullock revealed that he had surprised her with champagne and truffles after she confided in him that she’d never tried them.
We could go on and on. The point is, Keanu Reeves is a genuinely good human being, so it should come as small surprise that he’s once again doing the rounds on the internet following an interaction with a nine-year-old fan.

As per reports, the young boy in question approached Reeves at a book signing, telling the actor “I’m such a big fan!”
In footage shared by IGN, Reeves can be heard asking the boy his name. When the nine-year-old says “Noah”, Keanu then introduces himself too (like there was any need).

“You’re probably my favourite actor in the whole world!” Noah says in the clip.
Keanu can then be seen wearing a beaming smile. “Oh my gosh, Noah, thank you!” he says.

The 58-year-old actor then gave his young fan a mini quiz, asking him if he’d seen Duke Caboom – the toy voiced by Reeves in Toy Story 4.
“Yeah, he’s my favourite character!” Noah replies.
It’s not just Keanu’s politeness that shows through in these interactions, but his sheer enthusiasm. Fans were quick to highlight the fact that the John Wick star always appears to be just as happy to interact with others as they are to interact with him.

They say you should never meet your idols, but we think it’s safe to disregard that advice where Keanu is concerned.

Howie Mandel opens up on his condition

On “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” Mandel discussed his struggles with mental illness. He confessed that his celebrity status had a negative impact on his mental health, not a positive one.

From the outside, he sometimes seems cheerful, but when he’s at home, especially alone, he stated that’s not the case.

When Kelly Clarkson heard this, she was shocked. Mandel then acknowledged, “I’m heavily medicated.” Clarkson found it hard to comprehend that someone would make derogatory remarks about her.

Since he was a young child, Howard Stern has battled anxiety and OCD. He has said that he has had these ailments for almost his entire life.

Because he didn’t have any classmates to make friends with when he was younger, he was labeled “strange.” Though he believes he gets paid to be strange, he now finds that every day is a struggle. America’s Got Talent has Stern on the panel as a judge.

Mandel claims to be experiencing a nightmare and tries to ground himself. He has a lovely family and enjoys his work, yet he can also experience deep sadness from which he cannot recover.

He shared a lot of worry during the COVID-19 epidemic because he always has the thought, “We could die,” running through his head. But the fact that everyone in his immediate vicinity was okay would comfort him. But the world as a whole was in horrible shape [during the pandemic].

Up until 2006, Mandel kept his illnesses a secret from the public. He was ashamed and concerned that if his instability were discovered, he wouldn’t be able to obtain employment.

Mandel’s initial concern was that he had let his family down, but he later understood that if it was discovered that he wasn’t stable, he might not be employed.

Howie Mandel, the comedian, has struggled with severe depression for a long time. Mandel acknowledges that, even though he still experiences dark and terrible periods, the general public may not fully understand the severity of his depression.

Like other comedians, he utilizes comedy to deal with his disability. He claims that comedy saved him, and he feels most at ease performing.

Mandel claimed that he is now coming forth about his struggles with mental illness because he wants to end the stigma.

He is aware that enduring all of this will not be simple, but he has faith that despite his difficulties, he will continue to treasure the times when his life is not shadowed by darkness.

Mandel is aware that some people find his battles with mental illness amusing, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t terrible for him.

Despite his obstacles, he is optimistic that he can end the stigma associated with mental health issues. It won’t be simple for him to keep his mental health, but he wants to.
